Everyone else is, too. I started asking people, "Are you scared, too?" "You bet your sweet life I am." "Aha, so that's the way it is for you, too." We were all in the same boat.

That is the vainest of vain dreams. Rather is this the supreme revelation of a new way of living life; and only those who -- blunderingly, it may be, but yet honestly -- seek to adopt and imitate it can be counted really Christian folk.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7486</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[This is the Law of the Yukon, that only the strong shall thrive; That surely the weak shall perish, and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24871]]></link><description><![CDATA[This is the Law of the Yukon, that only the strong shall thrive; That surely the weak shall perish, and only the fit survive.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24871</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Every man who is high up loves to think that he has done it all himself; and the wife smiles, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/389]]></link><description><![CDATA[Every man who is high up loves to think that he has done it all himself; and the wife smiles, and lets it go at that.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/389</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is the glory and good of Art, That Art remains the one way possible  Of speaking truth, to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3171]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is the glory and good of Art, That Art remains the one way possible  Of speaking truth, to mouths like mine at least.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/3171</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Simple pleasures are always the last refuge of the complex ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46680]]></link><description><![CDATA[Simple pleasures are always the last refuge of the complex]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46680</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We often use strong language not to express a powerful emotion but to evoke it in us. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52296]]></link><description><![CDATA[We often use strong language not to express a powerful emotion but to evoke it in us.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/52296</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[She was basically going to need more time. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34461]]></link><description><![CDATA[She was basically going to need more time.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/34461</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There written all Black as the damning drops that fall  From the denouncing Angel's pen,   Ere Mercy ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23544]]></link><description><![CDATA[There written all Black as the damning drops that fall  From the denouncing Angel's pen,   Ere Mercy weeps them out again.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/23544</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He who has once made himself notorious as utterly unprincipled, is not credited even when he speaks the truth. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50838]]></link><description><![CDATA[He who has once made himself notorious as utterly unprincipled, is not credited even when he speaks the truth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/50838</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The union of the mathematician with the poet, fervor with measure, passion with correctness, this surely is the ideal ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46835]]></link><description><![CDATA[The union of the mathematician with the poet, fervor with measure, passion with correctness, this surely is the ideal]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46835</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Censorship reflects a society's lack of confidence in itself.
